Favorit citat:"You know," Gabriel said, "there was a time I thought we could be friends, Will.""There was a time I thought I was a ferret," Will said, "but that turned out to be the opium haze. Did you know it had that effect? Because I didn't.”
Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel“They haven't killed us yet," I say, and I imagine that one day I will fly a plane over Portland, over Rochester, over every fenced-in city in the whole country, and I will bomb and bomb and bomb, and watch all their buildings smoldering to dust, and all those people melting and bleeding into flame, and I will see how they like it.If you take, we will take back. Steal from us, and we will rob you blind. When you squeeze, we will hit.This is the way the world is made now.”
Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium “Simon rolled his eyes. “It’s a good thing we know the person who’s dating Magnus Bane,” he said. “Otherwise, I get the feeling we’d all just lie around all the time wondering what the hell to do next. Or trying to raise the money to hire him by selling lemonade or something.”Alec looked merely irritated by this comment. “The only way you could raise enough money to hire Magnus by selling lemonade is if you put meth in it.”
Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls"Every time I question him about the feasibility, he smiles at me like he's Yoda and I'm just a dumbass without the Force.”
Kendare Blake, Girl of Nightmares

"You... don't have the spine!" he hissed with morbid, sadistic amusement.Unfortunately for him, it was mercy that I lacked, not a spine. I raised my swords high overhead. He stopped laughing when I had finished hacking off his head.”
Courtney Allison Moulton, Angelfire

“He opened his palm and saw that the watch remained. Still there. Still real.Varen looked up at the figure that stood atop the fountain.With a howl of rage, he made it burst apart.He fell to his knees amid the wreckage and floating dust.Crumpling into himself, he released a choking sob, knowing that he, too, belonged to the ruin.”
Kelly Creagh, Enshadowed

"I had never been this mad at her before. It was one thing to be attacked by someone you hated, but this was something else. This was the kind of hurt that could only be inflicted by someone you loved, who you thought loved you. It was sort of like being stabbed from the inside out.”
Kami Garcia, Beautiful Darkness “Her shoulders never shook. No tears streamed down her face. The worst type of crying wasn't the kind everyone could see--the wailing on street corners, the tearing at clothes. No, the worst kind happened when your soul wept and no matter what you did, there was no way to comfort it. A section withered and became a scar on the part of your soul that survived. For people like me and Echo, our souls contained more scar tissue than life.”
Katie McGarry, Pushing the Limits

Spoilervarning! Handlingen innehåller spoilers från föregående böcker.It's been three months
since everyone under the age of fifteen became trapped in the bubble
known as the FAYZ. Things have only gotten worse. Food is running out,
and each day more kids are developing supernatural abilities. Soon
tension rises between those with powers and those without, and when an
unspeakable tragedy occurs, chaos erupts. It's the normals against the
mutants, and the battle promises to turn bloody.

But something
more dangerous lurks. A sinister creature known as the Darkness has
begun to call to the survivors in the FAYZ. It needs their powers to
sustain its own. When the Darkness calls, someone will answer -- with
deadly results.

They've
survived hunger. They've survived lies. But the stakes keep rising, and
the dystopian horror keeps building. Yet despite the simmering unrest
left behind by so many battles, power struggles, and angry divides,
there is a momentary calm in Perdido Beach.

But enemies in the
FAYZ don't just fade away, and in the quiet, deadly things are stirring,
mutating, and finding their way free. The Darkness has found its way
into the mind of its Nemesis at last and is controlling it through a
haze of delirium and confusion. A highly contagious, fatal illness
spreads at an alarming rate. Sinister, predatory insects terrorize
Perdido Beach. And Sam, Astrid, Diana, and Caine are plagued by a
growing doubt that they'll escapeor even survivelife in the FAYZ. With
so much turmoil surrounding them, what desperate choices will they make
when it comes to saving themselves and those they love?

Allison Sekemoto has
vowed to rescue her creator, Kanin, who is being held hostage and
tortured by the psychotic vampire Sarren. The call of blood leads her
back to the beginning—New Covington and the Fringe, and a vampire prince
who wants her dead yet may become her wary ally.

Even as Allie
faces shocking revelations and heartbreak like she’s never known, a new
strain of the Red Lung virus that decimated humanity is rising to
threaten human and vampire alike.

When
he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around.
Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it
through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous
combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After
everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not
sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in
discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization
responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there
is no end to what I’m capable of. The death of someone close still
lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will
become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the
outcome will shatter our worlds forever.

“You're amazing.""I know it didn't take you this long to realize that.""No. I've always known it." I watched him root around for another strawberry. "Maybe not in the beginning..."He peeked up. "My awesomeness is all about the stealth.”

Titel: GoneFörfattare: Michael GrantSerie: Gone #1Sidor: 560In the blink of an eye. Everyone disappears. GONE.
Except for the young. Teens. Middle schoolers. Toddlers. But not one
single adult. No teachers, no cops, no doctors, no parents. Just as
suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to get
help. And no way to figure out what's happened.

It's a terrifying new world. Sides are being chosen, a
fight is shaping up. Townies against rich kids. Bullies against the
weak. Powerful against powerless. And time is running out: On your
birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...
